Waste Drums and Barrels

Waste disposal drums come in various sizes, made from either steel or plastic, with a choice of lid types. It’s important that you use one that’s properly suited for the type of waste you need to store before collection and disposal, with the right capacity for the amount of waste your organisation produces.

Steel waste barrels are normally used to store liquids, oils, hazardous materials, and some solid waste. Plastic waste drums often hold solids, pastes, and sludge – though some can store liquids, so check with the supplier first. There are three main kinds of lid to suit the waste they contain too:

• Bung tops – liquid waste
• Clip tops – solid, sludge, and liquid waste
• Vented drums – aerosols

As a business, it’s your responsibility to ensure all waste you produce is stored, collected, and disposed of safely and in as environmentally friendly a way as possible. You need to protect both human health and the environment in your waste storage and removal. Using waste drums and barrels can be a safe and effective option depending on the waste type.

Waste barrels and drums help you easily separate different waste streams into appropriate storage. Choose a barrel with the right kind of lid to secure its contents and prevent any leaks or contamination. Rest assured that using these waste drums and barrels ensures compliance with environmental protection regulations too.
